A "six more weeks of winter" Groundhog Day is a dark one for gardeners. Especially tough news to digest on a day like today: it's 41 degrees outside right now, and the sun is shining. A friend said he saw a cardinal singing earlier this morning.
Sigh, who said April was the cruelest month, anyway?
The poem wouldn't work nearly as well if it was "February through April are the cruelest months..."
